Pre-Inca textiles are the extraordinary woven and embroidered fabrics produced by ancient Andean cultures in what is now primarily Peru, long before the rise of the Inca Empire (which began around the 13th–15th centuries CE). The Andean textile tradition is one of the oldest and most sophisticated in the world, dating back to at least 8000 BCE with early fiberwork found in sites like Guitarrero Cave. These pre-Inca textiles (from cultures spanning roughly 3000 BCE to ~1400 CE) are renowned for their technical mastery, vibrant natural dyes, and deep symbolic/religious meanings.
